"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Do pushups with your arms far apart. This will widen your shoulders, gradually.

Having broad shoulders means having a wider frame and larger rib cage too guys, that's what he's talking about. Heavy barbench and dumbell pullovers should do the trick.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

So are you suggesting that wide-grip excercises should also help (obviously those that target the shoulders) more so than medium grip?

LOL, pushups?

Seriously!

I do 4 exercises - but do not know how you call them in English...so I'll quickly describe them as best I can...

1. Standing up - pick up a barbell. Lift it up, over your head and lower it so that it rests behind your head. Now lift. Lower down. Repeat. 3 sets. (It's like the "pull down" - except that is for the back)... this is "pushed up".

2. Barbell with a better grip (you know the zig-zaggy handle lol, that's the best way I can describe it.) Standing up, lift it up as high as you can, preferably to the upper chest level. Keep a wide grip. As you lift, you have to move your elbows up in a kind of "V shape in order to lift the weight higher. Repeat - 3 sets.

3. Dumbells. standing up, with the dumbells in each hand, stretch your arms out (imagine Jesus on the cross). Lower your arms down by your side. Repeat. 3 sets. Be careful doing this. You need room. And good form.

4. To finish off, I use the machine that is like the pec dec, except the other way around...so you have to pull back. It's used as a back exercise, but is also good to finish up your shoulders to widen them a little.

Anyone know the names for these??

Also good form is required, ask your gym instructor for help executing the exercises.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Anyone who lifts and hasn't dropped the twenty bucks for the Arnie bible needs to do so immediately. You'll never ask what exercise to do for what as long as you live.
